Ascend above the tree line to witness a volcanic panorama unlike any other, unveiling La Palma's unique geological tapestry.
The highlight of your journey is the awe-inspiring Ruta de Los Volcanes, a trail that takes you on a dramatic exploration of volcanic activity. As you ascend to over 1800m, the Pico Bejenado rim offers a bird’s eye view into the expansive caldera, a sight that will undoubtedly leave an indelible mark on your memory.
